Improved Aggies Prepare
To Face Undefeated Bulldogs
By BOB BORISKIE
Sports Editor Pro Tem
The improved Aggies Tuesday
were preparing to end the brief two
game winning streak the unbeaten
University of Georgia Bulldogs
carry into Saturday’s game in Ath
ens, Ga. Kickoff is scheduled for
1 p.m. (CST).
Defeated in the first two games
of the young season, the Aggies
will enter the contest as underdogs
but are becoming accustomed to
that position. They were under
dogs last season when they met
the Bulldogs* in Dallas and eked
out a 14-12 victory.
Absent from this year’s game
are all-American Zeke Bratkowski
of Georgia and Don Ellis, A&M all-
Southwest Conference quarterback,
two of the best passers in the na
tion last season.
. Georgia has found a capable re
placement for Bratkowiski in Jim
Harper, whose sharp passing to
End Joe O’Malley played a large
part in the Georgia victory over
Florida State, 14-0, and the 14-7
win over Clemson. Reports from
Georgia say Harper may make fans
there forget “The Brat.”
Elwood Kettler, A&M’s replace
ment for Ellis, has adapted him
self well to the new split-T role
but has not yet developed into the
passing threat which the Aggie of
fense presented under Ellis.
Aggie players in addition to Ket
tler who are familiar to the Bull
dogs will be Fullbacks Don Kach-
tik and Bob Easley, Halfbacks Billy
Pete Huddleston and Joe Schero,
Tackles Lawrence Winkler, Bill
Schroeder and Norbert Ohlendorf,
Guards Ray Barrett, Sid Theriot
and Marvin Tate and End Bennie
Sinclair. Schroeder, an end last
year, has been moved to tackle.
Despite the 14-6 loss Saturday
to Oklahoma A&M, Coach Bear
Bryant lauded the spirited fourth
quarter play of the thin Aggie
crew.
“We were very pleased with the
effort of the boys,” Bryant said
“They looked better in the fourth
period than in any other part of
the game.”
The coaching staff also had
praise for Kettler, quarterback
from Brenham.
“We thought the play of Kettler
continued to improve,” Bryant said
Tuesday as his small squad worked
out for the Georgia game. Ray
Barrett, Eugene Stallings, Sinclair
and Kachtik also drew favorable
comment from the Aggie coach«s.
Scouting reports on Georgia in
dicate A&M will meet an improved
club over the one the Aggies de
feated last year. The Bulldogs are
big and strong and will carry a 10
pound weight advantage over the
Aggies who average 188 in the line
and 117 in the backfield.

Atlanta Downs
Houston Buffs
In Dixie Series
ATLANTA, Sept. 28—CP)—The
Atlanta Crackers capped one of the
most amazing comebacks in Dixie
Series history last night by de
feating Houston of the Texas
League 7-1 for their third straight
victory and a 4-3 triumph in the
post-season clash.
Glenn Thompson, who blanked
the Buffs Saturday at Houston,
checked them again Tuesday on
five hits and struck out six bat
ters. Jim Solt, Atlanta catcher,
struck the big blow, a pinch home
run with the bases loaded in the
fifth inning.

Notre Dame Assumes Familiar Role
In New Associated Press Football Poll
by Associated Press
Notre Dame, a familiar figure,
rules the roost as the No. 1 col
lege football team today in the
weekly Associated Press poll, but
there are enough newcomers among
the next nine to require introduc
tions all the way around.
Coach Terry Brennan’s Irish,
who rocked Texas 21-0 in their
opener, 1’eplaced Oklahoma in the
No. 1 spot. Oklahoma, top team
in the first regular poll last week,
had its difficulties in defeating
Texas Christian 21-16 and dropped
to second place.
But among the others in the hon
ored group only the name Mary
land has a familiar ring. The top
10 is completed with Iowa at No.
3, UCLA at No. 4 and Wisconsin
at No. 5. Then come Maryland,
Duke, Mississippi, Southern Cali
fornia and Penn State.
Notre Dame received 94 first
place votes and 1,438 points based
on 10 for first, nine for second,
Consolidated Kittens Meet
Brenham Juniors Tonight
The Brenham junior high school
football squad invades Tiger Field
tonight to face the A&M Consoli
dated Junior High School Kittens
in a tilt scheduled to begin at 7.
Last week, Coach Horace Shaf
fer’s Kittens opened the football
season with a convincing 33-13
district triumph over the Madison-
ville Colts. Tonight’s affair, how
ever, is a non-district game.
Probable starting offensive line
up for the Consolidated Kittens
will have Bobby Ross and Kirby
Jackson at the end position, Bennie
Jackson and John Beaty at tackles,
Royce Hickman and Pete Rodri
quez manning the guard slots and
either Larry Godfrey or George
Carroll at center.
In the backfield will be Edgar
Feldman at quarterback, Sidney
Greer and either Carroll or Jimmy
Walton at halfbacks and Jim
Wright rounding out the backfield
quartet at fullback.
Co-captains for the Kittens to
night will be Feldman and Rodi-
quez.
Wright is the only seventh-grad
er in the Kitten starting lineup.
Godfrey, who may start at center
if Carroll opens at the halfback
position, is also a seventh grade
member of the squad.
Nationalists Sink
Red China Junks
TAIPEH, Formosa, Wednesday,
Sept. 29 —GP)—Nationalist pilots
yesterday claimed five motorized
junks sunk and six damaged in at

thing bigger happens.”
The attacks by air and sea were
in their 27th day today with no
sign of a letup.
etc. Oklahoma got 24 first place-
votes and 1,224 points.
All of the top 10 teams except
Oklahoma will see action this week.
Notre Dame meets Purdue, rated
No. 19, at Notre Dame Saturday,
and Maryland goes to Los Angeles
for a game with UCLA Friday
night in the only head-on clash of
teams in the top 10 this week .
Five of the top 10 teams a week
ago are missing this week, and
two of them—Georgia Tech and
Illinois—disappeared from the first
20.
Penn State, not even among the
first 20 a week ago, jolted Illinois
6-12 while Florida shocked Georgia
Tech 13-12. Tech was fifth and
Illinois sixth last week.
Texas skidded from 4th to 12th,
Michigan State from 7th to 13th,
and Baylor from 10th to 11th.
Iowa, 12th last week, beat Mich
igan State 14-10, while Baylor had
to work for a 25-19 verdict over
Vanderbilt.
Two other newcomers to the first
10 are Duke and Southern Califor
nia. Duke blasted Penn 52-0 and
USC trimmed Pittsburgh 27-7.
Southern California was 15th and
Duke 18th last week.
The top ten with number of first
places votes in parenthesis are:
